a gift that behaves like a tiny private ceremony.
 
made for founders and investors who live inside decks, cap tables, and decisions. At the center is a 100% beeswax candle with an aromatic blend that softly collides with the scent of a leather label: “Burn Rate.” It slips off easily, so you can hang it on your next candle. Set it on a plate-style holder, strike matches stamped “Dry Powder,” and reach for tactile sensory minis with different textures (a few with a quiet sound). There’s tissue paper that rustles just right, and a magnetic-closure box that lands with a satisfying click. Add a humorous poem card and a rolled dollar, plus funny lines tucked throughout. The result is calm and joy, with a little edge - on purpose.
